Best Glazed Shitake Mushrooms With Bok Choy Recipes

GLAZED SHITAKE MUSHROOM WITH BOK CHOY

Steps:

• In a 4 quart pan bring water to boil. Add 2 tsp. of salt.
• Wash bok choy and cut off the stems. I left about 1-2″ of the stem towards the leaves but next time I will discard that too.
• Once the water comes to a boil, drop the leaves in the water and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the leaves are barely cooked. I cooked for 2 minutes but if using baby bok choy, I would recommend less than 2 minutes.
• Remove from water or drain in a colander and run under cold water. Pat dry the leaves and arrange in a platter or an oven safe dish. I let the leaves dry on paper towels until my mushrooms were ready.
• Remove the caps of the mushrooms, wash and keep aside. If the mushrooms caps are big, cut them into two. Discard the stems.
• Heat a wok or cast iron pan on high heat, add oil and heat until smoking hot. Add peppers, mushrooms and stir.
• Season with salt & black pepper, and stir fry for 2 minutes until mushrooms shrink in size.
• Reduce the heat; add garlic, ginger, sesame oil, soya/tamari sauce and sugar if using. Stir fry for 1 - 2 minutes.
• Place bok choy on a platter or an oven safe dish in a single layer or in two layers as I did. Spoon mushrooms on to arranged bok choy.
• Sprinkle scallions and sesame seeds on mushrooms to garnish.
• I served it at room temperature but if one wishes, cover it with foil and reheat in a hot oven for 10 - 15 minutes. If reheating, garnish the mushrooms after reheating.

BOK CHOY AND SHIITAKES

Steps:

• Soak 12 dried shiitake mushrooms in hot water, 30 minutes. Remove the stems. Boil 4 quartered heads bok choy, 2 minutes. Stir-fry 1 minced garlic clove in peanut oil, then add the mushrooms and some thinly sliced jicama; stir-fry 1 minute. Add 2 tablespoons each oyster sauce and mirin (sweet rice wine) and 1 cup chicken broth; cover and cook, 5 minutes. Add 2 teaspoons cornstarch mixed with a splash of water, then the bok choy; stir-fry 2 minutes.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH BOK CHOY, SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS, AND RADISHES

Steps:

• Arrange all vegetables on large rimmed baking sheet. Brush vegetables lightly on both sides with 1/3 cup Mango-Sesame Dressing; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Arrange chicken on sheet of foil. Brush both sides of chicken with 1/3 cup dressing, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Do ahead
• Vegetables and chicken can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
• Coat grill rack generously with nonstick spray and prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill vegetables until just tender, turning occasionally, about 8 minutes for onion rounds and 4 minutes for mushrooms, radishes, bok choy, and pepper strips. Return all vegetables to same baking sheet.
• Grill chicken until cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to cutting board. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes. Cool 2 chicken breasts; wrap and chill for Noodle Salad.
• Arrange remaining 4 chicken breasts and vegetables on platter. Serve with remaining dressing.

BOK CHOY WITH SHIITAKES

Steps:

• Put wok or large skillet over maximum heat, and add oil. When oil smokes, add garlic. Stir once, and add the bok choy. Cook for a minute or two until it just begins to brown. Then stir, and add shiitakes and sugar.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, a minute or two, and add the chicken stock and fish sauce. Cook, stirring, until the bok choy is tender. Add a bit more stock or water if necessary -- the mixture should not dry out entirely. Serve immediately.
